Abstract

A new species of stygobiont ostracod, Candonopsis (Abcandonopsis)
linnaei sp. nov., is described from subterranean waters of the Murchison region
in Western Australia. The new species can be easily distinguished from other
representatives of the genus by 6-segmented antennula and incompletely
divided penultimate segment of the walking leg. A key to the representatives
of the genus Candonopsis in Australia is also provided.
